Anything published on Github is merely a convenience. Long-term plan is still to move away from Github as the main repo due to concerns in the community. No time estimates on that, however. The change is simply in the build process, and an additional secondary distribution point. > P.S.

The only new thing is signing tags, which I'm doing more for fun than anything else: we have not discussed moving to git repository as the primary source of releases (nor would I really see many advantages to moving away from GNU practices in such a way). :-)
